Beer? not wine? We're going to have to get that one covered by The Merc!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D |
Well ladies ... I have finally made the first step in the giant leap called Dear Jane. I've been planning (in my head and on EQ) a variation of DJ using all the blocks but having a lot of negative space for a King size. I've also been wanting to do it in shot cottons. Finding shot cottons in the colors I wanted locally proved to be impossible. Stores just do not carry them. So I finally ordered a sampler of the shot cottons online and am awaiting their arrival. Once received I'll choose my colors (I already have a general idea that the background colors will be grey (specifically the Kaffe Fasset "Galvinized" which is silver and copper colored) with a variety of oranges/yellows and a touch of green. My bedroom is a light mint.
OK. I ordered the cottons this morning. Why are they not on my doorstep yet?? :) |
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is VERY good news!!!!!!!!! :) Now Hurry Up Mr. Postman!!!!!! :D:D:D |
Another one succumbs to the pressure!!!:D:D:D Should be a great quilt DogHouseMom

Now I need to get REALLY busy and first finish the quilt I'm working on, then do some more specific planning of my DJ as I want certain blocks placed in certain spaces to take advantage of the amount of color vs background of each block in the overall design. |
YEAHHHHHHHHHHH great DHM ! ! ! ! Did the postman arrive yet? :D :D :D
|
welcome DogHouseMom, I only have 41 blocks made so we can plod along together, look forward to seeing your fabric selection.
|
Welcome, DHM. I just heard about shot cottons and I'm anxious to see your selection & blocks.
Mirab, you're ahead of me--I'm still stuck at 19 blocks. For some reason I've been making Christmas runners & blocks. Not like me to work ahead--usually start gifts in December LOL. |
